PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS Lord Jesus Christ, Savior of the world, show forth, we beseech Thee, in Thy Church the Holy Spirit with whose power the apostles were so abundantly filled. We thank Thee for the blessings bestowed upon the work of priests and religious; and we pray that Thou wilt add to the number of those who now pray, labor, and sacrifice themselves for Thy glory and the salvation of souls. Give them unselfish zeal for Thy glory. O good Jesus, give us more priests and religious after Thine own Heart! Amen.

Our children are out of school for the summer! It is a time of fun, but also stress for hundreds of families in Methuen. Parents that depend on reduced cost meals supplied in school are at a loss to supply them at home in the summer. Will you please consider participating in our “YES I CAN” program? One can or box of food from each family in the parish would mean so much to the needy this summer. For those of you who continue to give week after week, we thank you for your continued support.

FROM FR. John

I think that it is appropriate to write a few words this week addressing the horrific event of mass murder and terrorism which occurred in Orlando this past weekend. Of course, it should go without saying that we, as the People of God, and indeed all persons of good will are shocked and saddened by this crime against life. We must pray for the dead, and pray for their families at this time, and going forward. Unfortunately, it is very likely that there will be individuals from every part of the political spectrum who will try to exploit this tragedy. They will talk about whatever hatred motivated the terrorist perpetrator. They will talk about his faith. They will talk about issues regarding firearms. All of these conversations have their place, but it seems to me that none of these conversations get anywhere near the heart of the problem, especially considering that, as I am writing this piece, I have just found out that a terrorist in France stabbed to death a police officer this morning. Is not the root of the problem in this world that there is a frightening lack of love? It is in the face of all of this evil that we must devote ourselves more and more every day to Christ by being more fervent members of His Body, the Church. The Church is the only voice in the world today proclaiming that love of God, and love of neighbor are essential commandments which bind every person on earth, regardless of their particular faith. Our faith also teaches us that we must be prepared for our day of judgment at every moment of our lives. Frequent tragedies like the one in Orlando, or any case of sudden death show each of us that we must be prepared for the summons of God at every moment. Let us keep before our eyes the Four Last Things: Death; Judgment; Heaven; Hell. Let our every thought, word, deed and omission be governed by the law of love. Most importantly, let us always acknowledge our sins, and ask God for forgiveness for them. Let us never be like the Pharisees who believed that their sins were small, thus presuming on God's mercy. Go to confession frequently, and be truly confident at every moment that God is holding you in the palm of his hand. May all the dead rest in peace, and may God bless their loved ones. Fr. John Cassani

The Pilot is an important voice in the public square that brings you the Catholic perspective on current events.

Inspired by the vision of our publisher, Cardinal Seán O’Malley, The Pilot covers it all — from in-depth reporting on Pope Francis to the good works of Boston parishes.

Each week, The Pilot brings you the stories of Boston Catholics who bring the Works of Mercy to life on a daily basis.

Proclaiming the present Holy Year of Mercy, Pope Francis said he wants to make it evident that the Church’s mission is to be a witness of compassion. “Let us not forget that God forgives and God forgives always,” Pope Francis said. “Let us never tire of asking for forgiveness.”
